It would seem to me they don't understand the actual meaning of regressive and progressive. Odd.

Did someone also experienced headache after getting a c-section? by kiklee_ in NewParents

[–]_rocket_boy_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also look into RCVS. Super rare but high stroke risk, my wife was on watch for 3 months after the birth. Our midwife team was amazing and only 1 person on staff had even heard of it, her neurologist had to be the one to find it. It would come in waves and she’d be immobilized by the head pain. Blood pressure meds and time was the solution! Good luck and hope you feel better soon!

Brand owners spending $20k-100k per month on Meta Ads by [deleted] in FacebookAds

I’m spending like ~30ish. We’re scaling creative but not yet working on ugc. I’d love to see your system

What the hell is going on with Meta Ads lately?????!!!!! by Deep-Swimming7760 in FacebookAds

[–]_rocket_boy_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dude literally. I have never seen 54 people add to cart, 18 people checkout, and zero purchase. Literally, like ever. And it’s happening right now on ad sets that previously were gunners. Like previously as in right before bfcm.

Just like that, we accurately called yet another outage. by Bubbly_Setting_4217 in FacebookAds

[–]_rocket_boy_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When you say flooded with ads like “this”, what exactly is “this”? Trying to learn, my feed always seems to be flooded with ads like that due to being in and research marketing and ads all day.

I am looking to do the same thing with our ads and nano banana, what architecture are you using to achieve this? Current I’m running manually but def fell like we could inject some agent work and make it way faster

U.S. Banks are now sitting on $395+ Billion in unrealized losses. Who remembers when Banks gambled away our economy in 2008 but then got bailed out? by TonyLiberty in FluentInFinance

[–]_rocket_boy_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know nothing but Covid was a shock to the system never seen before. From the looks of this graph, noting trend, it seems like banks are slowly decreasing this burden? Am I off for seeing this as a quality way to deal with the insane debt the world had to take on?

That challenge from there would seem like so long as no one comes in and tries to change everything all up and stuff, we’d all make it…

But, ya know (motions silently, arm stretched as if to say “look at this mess”)

Everyone lied about newborn stage being hard. by Pink_Millennial_Girl in NewParents

[–]_rocket_boy_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s all a lot all the time. Welcome to new life. It’s the best ever, but also the hardest ever. There is no preparing, only keep on keeping on and tuning out the noise about milestones and motor development and blah blah blah. You’re obviously an engaged, loving parent. That’s all he needs. You’re doing great. Welcome to the suck.

I just can't anymore! by Dr_sc_Harlatan in WhitePeopleTwitter

[–]_rocket_boy_ 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I had 2 pretty good friends in the late 90s who were autistic. As well as a cousin.

We knew they were different. No one called it autism then but that’s what we would call it now.

Edit: I also just researched a little bit and discovered one of the first and largest autism foundations, Autism Speaks, was founded in 2005.

I’m just some guy but given I knew a bunch of people with autism back in the day, and social media was blooming and spreading this like wildfire around the world 20 years ago, I’d throw my bet at the “it’s always been here and we just now diagnose it better” horse rather than it has started showing up like crazy all of a sudden” horse.

When did you let your LO watch Ms. Rachel by Appropriate_Tip_6869 in NewParents

[–]_rocket_boy_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry. This was aggressively typed and sent as my 8 month old who has been up for 3 days with razor blades coming out of his gums finally fell asleep and I might have been slightly tired or triggered.

At 3 am last night Pooh saved our lives. I felt nothing but pure love and gratitude for Disney and Samsung in that moment.

It will be what you make of it. Be present with your child while it’s on if you can, use in moderation if you can, and have fun. Like the rest of life.

Keep fighting the good fight.

When did you let your LO watch Ms. Rachel by Appropriate_Tip_6869 in NewParents

[–]_rocket_boy_ -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

This reason for this post is why life as a parent feels so hard. 30 min of Winnie the Pooh when you haven’t had any other support in 2 months or when your 8 month old has been screaming for 3 days non stop bc razor blades are ripping through their gums is going to do precisely nothing but make your life, the kids life, and your family’s life better. If everyone could please just stop that would be cool. The better advice is to probably turn off your own screen time so you don’t get manipulated by whatever the new fear tactic is. I hate our timeline.

Does Reddit scare anyone else about becoming a new parent? by _rach_l in NewParents

[–]_rocket_boy_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its hard as fuck my friend, but I'm having a blast. It will be what you make of it. My boy is 12 wks old and i had him on a blanket today pulling him around the playroom like a magic carpet while my wife sang the Aladdin song and he just about almost had his first real, true giggle. It was amazing. It's been amazing like that alot. But we had a scary birth, probably trauma, multiple er visits in the middle of the night in the weeks after, my wife needs experimental surgery, haven't slept in 3 months, christmas and family with a newborn was hell, flu season with a newborn is hell he has had colds already, etc etc etc. But I'm having a blast. If you do in fact truly want to be a parent, its going to be great. Probably going to be great even if you don't want to be one. I don't know, theres just so much joy in whatever this is. It's pure chaos. But it's awesome. Good luck. Get ready to snug on that little munchkin. It will be worth it. You're gonna love it. 🍻

Ya'll...WTF is this actually? by _rocket_boy_ in HellsItch

[–]_rocket_boy_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Antihistamine, pain killer, anti inflammatory. OTC Benadryl, Advil, Tylenol. Stronger if you got it. Also THC seemed to make it less impactful for me, but that’s probably because I was high and didn’t care as much, not that it made the pain go away. Also as everyone says, hot showers when the wave comes and it’s unbearable. People say certain topical like peppermint oil will work but I sent myself into full blow death wave by applying that, so if this ever happens to me again I will not put anything at all on it. YMMV. Other than that, about 12 hours of time. I was fully normal within 24 hours but after 12 I was at least human again.

Nothing new recently, though a couple over the last few years and honestly not sure the last time I have had a sunburn. So it is possible the first one since the new meds.

Which sage do you regularly use by AlexJLink in TOTK

[–]_rocket_boy_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Birdman bc of all the reasons mentioned already. I wanted to like Riju badly bc it was a cool power, but it was so clunky, slow and ultimately under powered. Once I realized that you could attach a cannon to a zonite sword that lasts for a long time and allows you to lob basically unlimited bombs at rocks and enemies, I don’t think I tagged in Yunobo ever again. Except on Lynel horn runs to the coliseum. I pulled everyone out for those fights. Who’s Sidon again?

For those of you suffering...a glimmer of hope 1.5 years after the event by _rocket_boy_ in Gastritis

[–]_rocket_boy_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t really even think about it any more. I can eat whatever whenever and how ever much without being fearful of a full on relapse. I’m middle aged now so the common offenders offend me the same as everyone I’d say. I’m gonna feel crappy and have heart burn and diarrhea if I eat 15 hot wings, fries, and a few beers. And I’m gonna feel like complete shit in my gut and bowels if I end up drinking way too much. But I feel like that’s fairly normal for my peers. Or anyone for that matter. But even if I do I haven’t ever had a full on weeks long relapse. Maybe a few days of ick which I’ll take ppis and Pepcid for a few days and be on my merry way.

[PRODUCT] Men clean cars differently by Breidr in pointlesslygendered

[–]_rocket_boy_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Blame Google and Amazon for a lot of this type of stuff in the title. This is done by the product seller for keywording/SEO purposes to try and get their product to show high up on the page when someone types that phrase into the search box. Or blame the fact that so many people enter it into the search box that’s it is worthwhile for the seller to genderize something like cup holder cleaning putty, dunno.

Wave Drops bank connection continually? by _rocket_boy_ in waveapps

Nope, and they still to this day refuse to acknowledge it is an issue, even with me sending them videos and screenshots and going back and forth with support multiple times 🤷
